Late Night Mumblings

And yet again
It's 3am 
Before I crawl to bed,
my eyelids drag
Like airport bags,
My limbs have turned to lead

Again so late
And no dream state,
I'm sure that it must be
Since I've run out
Of wool to count,
The sheep are counting me.

Tone-Deaf

tone-deaf 
unintelligible 
mumblings 
escape into the air
like nails spreading 
across a chalkboard 
causing confused 
expressions to spread 
across the faces of those 
around 
break out in an all out
two left footed choreography 
the look at me look at me 
show has begun

The Smoking Room

Mutters in the corner,
Halfheard mumblings of conversations,
Uninteresting lives. Dull.
Smoke from tabs mixing with
Cold breath, dancing their escape.
Staring. 
Dreaming.
Slate grey walls holding up a shanty roof.
Rain falls, pitter pat
Random thoughts.
Huddle together - apart.

Homebound

Currently homebound. 

Soon to be housebound. 

Joyful ramblings. 

Sleepy mumblings. 

Traveling by car. 

Scars still settling. 

My therapist is awaiting me.

Someday, the trauma will be worthwhile…

For now, let’s celebrate!

Someday I will remember…

But today I am homebound.

Numb

I wonder if I’m an empath.

I wonder if I’ve ascended.

I feel like wandering into a wall. 

I wish my random mumblings-

Would translate to the screams that they are. 

I am numb to my family’s calls. 

Every time she says goodbye and goodnight…

I hope she is having a good night without me.

A Lecherous Neophyte

A lecherous neophyte he preyed
upon their folded hands and closed eyes
bathed in their dolorous mumblings
sated himself on their penitential inhibition

Left them to flounder hopelessly - adrift
drowning in his vitriolic bombast
a hard burning scent of incense
left to smolder in their souls

for Providence had delivered them - to him

Mumblings On Facebook

When I play you my song 
I want you to sing along
And take in each word
With my thoughts that have occurred 

What would you do 
If it speaks to you so true
Do you shed a tear
Or be comforted when you hear

Is it your take on every word
That does not seem absurd
Do I speak for you in your heart
Or spark an idea from the start

Stand up and be counted I say
For the words will forever stay
In the end I want you to hear
It’s why I say them to you so clear.
